Survey shows between 56% and 79% across seven countries in favour if Trump introduces ‘Liberation Day’ levies

The US president appears likely to unleash a range of tariffs, varying from country to country, on Wednesday, which he has called Liberation Day. He also said last week that a 25% levy on cars shipped to the US would come into force the next day.
